function to blend both the Cue level and the Program level together. You can vary the output level
to either hear more or less of either of the two levels. Sliding the Cue Mixing fader to the CUE posi
-
tion (left) will allow you to hear more of the Cue level. Sliding the knob to the PGM position (right) will
allow you to hear more of the Program level (main output). You may also use the Cue Mixing Control
to hear either the Cue level or the Program level exclusively. If the fader is in the full CUE position you
